Operating Machine Functions From Base Controls - Skyjack SJ82 T Service Manual

Boom
5.4-8 Operating Machine Functions from
Base Controls
CAUTION
There is a risk of personal injury or equipment
damage if repositioning the boom with the platform
removed. Use the base controls with auxiliary
power (engine off) to reposition the boom safely.
If boom repositioning is necessary with the platform
removed, reconnect the two cable harnesses and the
jib/platform rotate harness to the platform control box.
IMPORTANT
If boom repositioning is necessary during this
procedure, select emergency power position from
start–function enable–emergency power switch,
then activate desired boom function.
When operating on auxiliary power, do not
operate more than one function at a time to avoid
overloading the 12-volt auxiliary pump motor.
IMPORTANT
Be aware that the short length of control cables
connected to the platform control box limits boom
movement.
Connect the jib and platform rotate harness as shown
on the Platform Controls Wiring diagrams in Section
3.

1. Pull jib and platform rotate harness through the
strain relief connector on the bottom of the box
and tighten the connector. Make sure the wires
can reach the terminal block on the left-hand
side on the box. Note the color and markings for
each wire.
2. Inserting a small flat screwdriver into the slot
beside the wire position in the terminal strip
depresses the spring mechanism. Insert the
end of the wire, then pull out the screwdriver to
secure it.
3. Once the wires are all connected, close the lid
and turn the two box latches to fasten it.

Place the boom in a horizontal (0°) position.
